BY AK FAUZI PG SALLEH A GOAL each from Mohd Mazazizi Mazlan and Mohd Khairuddin Abdul Kadir
was enough to help the Royal Brunei Armed Forces Sports Council (MS ABDB) edge
Indera Sports Club (SC) 2-1 in the Sumbangsih Cup last night. The victory meant a lot to the MS ABDB players as they were looking
forward to the match after the pain of losing last year’s DST Super League
title to Indera on the final day of the season in March. Both teams finished the league tied on points, but Indera's superior
goal difference was enough to put them ahead of MS ABDB – who won the DST FA
Cup last year. “This is my first time in charge of the team and what a very good
start it has been for us,” said MS ABDB manager Pg Mufid Pg Hj Umar Ariffin in
after the match at the Balapan Tarck and Field of the Hassanal Bolkiah National
Spots Complex in Berakas. “We were very solid from the start but Indera came back in the second-half.

DST Super League defending champions Indera Sports Club (SC)
have always been known for their fast football, propensity to attack and their
never-say-die attitude - characters which have long been built into the psyche
of the club and the players.

Indera SC are also known as a club that produces a lot of talented players
who have gone on to represent the country at national and regional tournaments,
and to date, they have contributed more than 30 players to the national team.

However, the club are undergoing a huge transformation this season with
more than half of the squad being replaced, so they will need to be at their
very best to defend their title against rivals Royal Brunei Armed Forces Sports
Councul (MS ABDB) – who they beat for the DST Super League title by virtue of
goal difference last year.

Though he knows the team have a tough task ahead of them, Indera SC
manager Rosdin Hj Abdul Aziz said the club will do their best to retain their
crown.
